First Image Of The Governor From Season 3 Of “The Walking Dead” by Scott Alminiana

TV Guide has just released the first image of David Morrissey as The Governor from AMC’s The Walking Dead. The Governor will be introduced in Season 3 of the hit show.

The Governor, real name Philip Blake, is the vicious leader of the small town of Woodbury. He becomes one of Rick’s (Andrew Lincoln) greatest enemies in the series and brings with him more death than the walker’s themselves could.  I’d tell you more but then the walkers would have to eat me…and you!

Robert Kirkman, creator/executive producer on The Walking Dead had this to say regarding Season 3 and The Governor:

“Seeing The Walking Dead come to life on AMC has been a real thrill for me, obviously, and moving into Season 3 I’m even more excited than ever because now I feel like we’re really getting to ‘the good stuff…”Having The Governor in the mix is going to fundamentally change the show in all kinds of awesome and exiting ways. And David Morrissey totally rocks!”The Governor in the show is definitely going to be The Governor in the comic, ”I think that he’s definitely going to be a character that people love to hate and are absolutely entertained by, but also somewhat terrified of. He’s definitely going to be a very important character and a very nuanced character. We are not going to be watering him down.”

Season 3 of The Walking Dead Premieres on AMC this October.

    Doesn’t look all that scary…

  • Alice Acheron

    Hmm, I don’t hate him as much as I hate the governor in the comics. But I’ll guess we’ll see what he does with his performance.

    haven’t read the comic, but does this The Governor keep himself a foreign boy toy in it like this picture would lead me to believe?

  • Jiminy Cricket

    Every time I see anything about this show I just think of how great it could have (and should have) been. But he looks like a baddie, alright.

  • Scott Alminiana

    I agree, he doesn’t look that scary but hopefully he will be a vicious twisted bastard like he is in the comics. I naturally just assume the foreign guy in the background is his man-servant. I hope that season 3 will hit the ground running and be better than season 2 was. Last season just moved at a snails pace for the first half but then sprinted to the end.

  • Greggers

    I agree, Scott. Last season, although entertaining, dragged on like a walker missing a leg. They say they won’t water his character down for the show so it’s gonna be a pretty brutal season 3 if they stick to that.

  • Scott Alminiana

    If they hold true and dont water the character down then I think we will all be in for quite a bloody treat. Between The Governor and Michonne it’s already shaping up to be a good season.
